How To Bake Spaghetti Squash Whole

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (218 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with foil.
Place the scored spaghetti squash onto the lined baking sheet. Roast in the oven for about 35-45 minutes, flipping over halfway through. It's done when the skin pierces fairly easily with a knife. The knife should be able to go in pretty deep with just very slight resistance.
Remove from the oven, then rest 10 minutes before slicing. Cut the spaghetti squash in half crosswise for longer low carb noodles, or lengthwise for shorter ones.
Scoop out the seeds, then use a fork to release strands. Sprinkle with sea salt, then toss with your favorite sauce to serve.

How To Bake Spaghetti Squash Cut in Half

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (218 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with foil and grease lightly.
Use a sharp chef's knife to slice the spaghetti squash in half. To make it easier, use the knife to score where you'll be cutting first, then slice. Cut crosswise for longer low carb noodles, or lengthwise for shorter ones. Scoop out the seeds.
Drizzle the inside of the halves very lightly with olive oil. Season with sea salt.
Place the spaghetti squash halves onto the lined baking sheet, cut side down. Roast in the oven for 25-35 minutes, until the skin pierces easily with a knife. The knife should be able to go in pretty deep with just very slight resistance.
Remove from the oven and let the squash rest on the pan (open side down, without moving) for 10 minutes.
Use a fork to release strands. Toss with your favorite sauce to serve.
